Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 14:55, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cell disruption edits

I remain concerned about your most recent edit to cell disruption. So far, I have only removed some of the advertising links you had (re-)inserted. The text you have re-added has passages that are very similar to content at Tim Hoskin's page at www.biospec.com/laboratory_cell_disrupters/; I haven't had time to go through with a fine-toothed comb to determine whether or not there are copyright violation or plagiarism issues in play.

As well, most of the text that you re-added continues to lack sourcing. Is it your own personal opinion, is it from manufacturer's catalogs or websites, is it from journal articles, or what? TenOfAllTrades(talk) 13:14, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. That material that is similar to Tim HoPkins biospec page seems to have been added by Tim Hopkins on 30th March 2008 claiming authors permission, I am assuming that he is actually who he says he is. As you seem to accept his biospec page as a source, I have left his insertions as is.

I originally inserted those "advertising link" but as I have no connection with those companies I do not see how it is advertising. The point was that workers in the field would be pointed to useful equipment.

The second half of the piece on cryopulverization is an amalgam of my writing and Tin Hopkins (I do not know the guy), see edit 20th jan 2013. It corresponds with my professional experience ancd I would back it with company references but I imagine you would delete it as advertising.

I remain concerned is that you seem to have no interest in making a positive contribution to this page. Earlier this year you deleted a vast amount of useful information that would have been useful to less experienced workers in the field, and made no attempt to replace any of it. Please leave my work alone OR replace the information in a manner that is referenced to your own high standards. I only cordially request that you stop deleting everything.Liamloftus (talk) 14:03, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Earlier this year I removed a great deal of material that had been copied and pasted from another web site. Your repeated re-addition of the copyright-violating material last month – and your subsequent unsuccessful attempt to recruit a posse to come after me – reflect very poorly on you; bluntly, I don't trust your judgement. Your continuing "my way or the highway" approach doesn't help. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 15:23, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, have it your way, delete the page if you like, I don't have the energy for this. But someone who deletes 22,000 words of numerous other people's work and makes no attempt to replace them should not accuse anyone of a "my way or the highway" approach. In fact, before I attempted to undo your deletions, I wrote to you on 21/9, never received a reply and so 2 days later undid the deletions. Anyway, have fun deleting as much stuff as you like.Liamloftus (talk) 16:17, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did inform other contributors of your deletions and suggested that they might want to reinsert their work on this particular article. I did not ask anyone to go after you or otherwise bother or harass you. Liamloftus (talk) 16:31, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted 22,000 words which were mostly copied and pasted from another website. Even if it would be really convenient for writing articles, we're not allowed – and it would be grossly unethical – to plagiarize material and violate other authors' copyrights. The other people who copied and pasted into Wikipedia are the ones who you should have a beef with, not the conscientious Wikipedia editors who have to clean up their mess.
